Still Broken

In an effort to fix the parts about me that were broken, I spent many hours sitting in college psychology classes studying human behavior and hoping that somewhere between Adler and Vygotsky I'd be cured.  Didn't happen. Still broken.

I turned to self-help books: You're Okay, I'm Okay; 7 Habits of the Highly Effective People; The Road Less Traveled; Who Moved My Cheese; The Power of Now; The Four Agreements; Your Erroneous Zone; You Can Heal Yourself, and Chicken Soup for The Broken You...just to name a lot. Didn't work. Still broken.

Love was the answer; I was sure of it.  So I traveled down the road most traveled looking for love in all the wrong places. I thought finding love would make me happy, whole, complete...fixed; I was wrong. Still broken.

I know what you're thinking. I've tried everything else, what about therapy? I love that suggestion. Thank you for bringing that up. I think everyone could benefit from therapy--except you of course. Everyone knows you are the benchmark for mental and emotional stability. Yes, I have tried therapy. It didn't help. Still broken.
